Raft Building
on lost wellie creek
Details:
Our purpose-build pond is also ideal for raft-building. Again, on a self-help basis, all the equipment required is included, barrels, poles, lashing ropes, helmets, buoyancy aids etc.
The creek is class C water, which doesn't require any BCU qualifications. However, the Leader in charge will still need their DC's permission. This could either be on a one off basis, or a long term consent by way of an Adventurous Activities Permit.
This activity is for a half-day session which would allow 1 hour for the construction of the raft on the shore and then one hour's use of the pond followed by another hour to dismantle & put the equipment away.
It is possible that during the first and last hour of a 3 hour session, the pond may be in use by canoeists
Instruction:
Instruction is not provided for this activity, each group will require a "competent adult" whom we will show to the pond, assist in setting-up and leave to supervise once they are happy with the session.
